A program of the California Health Collaborative, the Lock it Up Project is a community based substance abuse prevention project targeting youth and young adults ages 10-25 in Fresno County. The goal of the Lock It Up Project is to raise awareness on the dangers and consequences of prescription drug abuse and reduce youth life time use of these drugs. Recognizing that not one entity can tackle this issue alone, the Lock It Up Project partners with community leaders to reach target populations, including school districts. In this workshop, participants will learn about the benefits of collaborating with community based projects to address youth substance abuse prevention.
